The upcoming iPad mini 7 is expected to be a major upgrade with many changes from design to performance.
According to BGR, Apple is expected to introduce the iPad mini 7 model in the coming weeks.
Below are the expected features that will be available on this new product, promising to bring a great experience to consumers:
The new generation iPad mini is expected to improve both design and performance.

Design and display
The next-generation iPad mini is likely to retain the same 8.3-inch screen size and overall form factor as the sixth-generation model.
However, there is a rumor that Apple is considering tweaking the display assembly to address “jelly scrolling.”
The change is intended to reduce lag when scrolling vertically, an issue that has plagued users with the current model.
A18 Chip
When launching the iPad mini 6, Apple equipped the A15 Bionic chip, a technology only available on the iPhone 13.
If this trend continues, the iPad mini 7 will be equipped with the A18 chip, which doubles performance, improves memory bandwidth, and enhances energy efficiency.

Apple Intelligence
Currently, there are only two iPad models that do not have Apple Intelligence built in, including the iPad mini and the standard iPad.
Since the iPad mini is similar to the iPad Air but has a smaller screen, it is likely that Apple will equip this device with 8GB of RAM, which will help it run Apple Intelligence features smoothly.
Apple Intelligence is one of the expected features that will be available on the new iPad mini.

Apple Pencil Pro
Apple has added complexity to its Apple Pencil lineup, with four different accessories compatible with its iPad lineup. To make things clearer, Apple could add support for the Apple Pencil Pro on the iPad mini 7, which brings squeeze gestures, haptic feedback, and Find My app integration.
Adjust camera
Currently, the iPad mini is the only model that does not have a front-facing camera on the horizontal side. However, the next version may change this. However, it is not impossible that Apple will keep the camera design for the iPad mini, because this is a portable device and is easiest to use when held vertically.
Improved connectivity
While the newly launched iPhone 16 already offers Wi-Fi 7 connectivity, BGR predicts that the iPad mini 7 will be upgraded to Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, and may support eSIM technology instead of a physical SIM tray.
Color options
The current iPad mini comes in four color options: space gray, starlight, pink, and purple. However, the new iPad mini will likely adopt a similar color scheme to the iPad Air, which could mean adding blue and removing pink from the lineup.
